Asus X99-E WS (X99, LGA2011-v3)

[flanker]

Před pár týdny jsem byl s několika dalšími českými i zahraničními novináři na představení platformy X99. Nuže, uvedu to nejpodstatnější na fóru. Rozhodně to stálo za vidění a rozhodl jsem se po mnoha letech zas koupit extrémní procesor Intelu (tedy tu "tisícidolarovku" )
úvod teorie:
X99 je určená jako ultrahighend a s tím i spojené procesory i7-5820K, 5930K a i7-5960X. První dva jsou šestijádra s hyperthreadingem, poslední je dokonce osmijádro s hyperthreadingem. První jmenovaný má osekané PCIe linky na 28, zbylé dva mají plných 40 PCIe 3.0 linek.

Asus uvedl pro X99 patentovanou novinku, tzv X99 OC socket

Porovnání klasického LGA2011-v3 a LGA2011-OC socket




Z obrázku je patrné, že toto má význam u OC procesoru a pamětí. Jde vlastně o to, že Asus zapřemýšlel a když viděl loňský 2011 a letošní 2011 socket a CPU, všiml si nevyužitých pinů. Tak proč nějaké piny nepřidat, a dosáhnout díky tomu větší stability (nejspíš část z nich je nově směrována k IMC procesoru).

Skvělá DDR4 komaptibilita, pokud slajd nekecá



Součástí softwaru je znovu, lehce vylepšený, 5-dual intelligent processors

Deska zeshora, jedná se už dle vzevření o klasickou pracovní workstation. Sedm PCIe slotů, světlejší jsou z jižního můstku, zbytek jde přes CPU.


Až možných dvanáct SATA konektorů, 6 Gb/s


Duální LANka a množství dalších výstupů, hlavně USBček

Taak a tu je produktový list k tejto základnej doske:
http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/X99E_WS/overview/

Extra piny má prítomné i táto doska ako sme i diskutovali vo vlákne o X99 Deluxe. Hlavnou výhodou tejto základnej dosky je prítomnosť čipu PLX8747 pre viac PCI-E liniek (tak ako napríklad mala napríklad i táto MSI Z87 XPower http://www.anandtech.com/show/7209/msi- ... th-plx8747 ) a ako i je popísané v predstavení X99 dosiek Asusu ( 48 liniek prostredníctvom spomenutého čipu + 40 alebo 28 cez ekvivalentný CPU )
http://www.asus.com/us/site/motherboards/X99/

Určenie tejto základnej dosky je jasné: veľa prídavných kariet všetkých možných druhov od grafických, akceleračných, koprocesorov, radičov a tak ďalej.

A nakoniec správa tu z PCT stránky: http://pctuning.tyden.cz/component/cont ... ofesionaly
Cena: $520 (približne 11 000 Kč, respektíve okolo 500 Eur)

5960X Uncore thermal impact: Stock vs OC
Testing Uncore and its impact when loaded with controlled temps.
On auto the uncore trains in at 1.55v @ 4500Mhz but I found that the uncore can actually run that speed 1.35v to 1.4v
Shamino also mentions in his OC guide that over volting the uncore is preferred.
From what I have seen so far, these uncore speeds are only possible on the OC Socket.
If your motherboard does not have the OC socket it will not reach these speeds.

It should be possible to run 4.5Ghz uncore 24/7 on air safely.

Now with the release of Intel's Haswell E5-2600 v3 Socket 2011-R3 processors, we can really step up the computing power of single socket motherboards like the ASUS X99-E WS. The X99-E WS motherboard is a feature packed system that can handle Four-Way GPUs and processors with up to 18 cores. This motherboard is about as high-end as you can get for single socket systems, but what really sets it apart is that it also overclocks, and would be a perfect fit for a processor like a 5960x.

The built-in features for overclocking CPUs and DDR4 memory can really increase the system's performance to high levels, and can be done with just a few clicks in the BIOS. You may not be able to get super high-end overclocks with this feature, but what you do get is easy to use, and enhances performance a great deal. With these features in the BIOS, ASUS has made overclocking something that just about everyone can do, no matter how knowledgeable they are in overclocking.

In the lab, we set up the Z97-WS with a 4770K, and hit the auto-overclocking feature in the BIOS. This achieved a 4.5GHz overclock that has been stable under all conditions for many months now, and we expect the X99-E WS will perform the same. This alone provides a great deal of value to system builders who can build up a system, and OC is easy and safe for end users. If you are skilled in overclocking, the BIOS provides all the tools to achieve higher overclocks to squeeze out every bit of performance you can get.

Besides the Four-Way GPUs, and overclocked processor and RAM, the X99-E WS also doubles up on the storage capabilities when compared to the Z97-WS motherboard. With all the computing power the X99-E WS provides, having plenty of storage to work on large files is necessary. The X99-E WS provides that with a huge array of SATA ports that can create large storage pools using RAIDs 0, 1, 5, and 10, and the SATA Express ports provide high speed storage abilities.

We have used several ASUS workstation class motherboards in the lab now, and we feel that ASUS has become the gold standard for BIOS's and features. ASUS has developed its version of the UEFI BIOS that has advanced capabilities such as auto overclocking features, Five-Way Optimization with CPU Performance Boost, Energy Efficiency, Fan Xpert 3, Digital Power Control, and Turbo App, which shows how serious ASUS is in not only making motherboards, but also designing features to match users' needs and requirements.

We find the X99-E WS retail package to be about as complete as you can get; you get everything you will need, and then some. Sure, you will end up paying a little more for these extra accessories, but we feel that it is nice to not have to go looking for extra cables when purchasing a motherboard. Motherboards should just come with everything you need, and the X99-E WS does.

Not only is the X99-E WS a premium workstation motherboard, but it would also make a higher-end gaming system that is more than capable of running demanding games.
